Shocking: A Christian mother of three, working as a nurse offered to pray with patients before their surgery but got sacked

Nurse Sarah Kuteh

For offering to pray with patients who are on the queue for surgery, a Christian nurse have been shown the exit door in the hospital were she works.

Reports says sister Sarah Kuteh, have 15-years of experience in the job.

It is cruel behaviour of the HR to had dismissed Sarah because patients are always being asked about their religion before surgery, but the chiefs at Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust said her "unwanted discussions" had offended patients.

Darent Valley Hospital in Dartford, Kent

Sarah Kuteh, who have three children, is suing the Trust, which is responsible of running Darent Valley Hospital in Dartford, Kent, after she was suspended and removed from the premises.

She said: "It was embarrassing for me and painful after all I had done in my years as a nurse. I was told I couldn’t even speak to my colleagues. All I had done was to nurse from my heart. How could it be harmful to tell someone about Jesus?"

Mrs Kuteh started her nursing career in London before moving to Dartford in 2007 and becoming a sister in 2012. Her last role was to assess patients’ health before they went for surgery.

One question on a required questionnaire was regarding religious beliefs.

She admitted she spoke to patients about religion without their permission when she started the new role, when she saw the question regarding religion had been left blank. But she stopped after a warning in April.

But she was sacked in August after an investigation after three complaints in June.

Just two weeks ago a report by the Equality and Human Rights Commission told employers to not allow political correctness stand in the way of discussing faith even going as far as to say Christmas parties should not be cancelled.

Prime Minister Theresa May followed, telling Parliament during Prime Minister’s Questions: "I’m happy to welcome the publication of this report and its findings.

"Of course we are now into the season of Advent and we have a very strong tradition of religious tolerance and freedom of speech and our Christian heritage is something we can all be proud of.

"I’m sure we would all want to ensure that people at work do feel they are able to speak about their faith and do feel they can speak quite freely about Christmas."

Mrs Kuteh, is taking her case to an employment tribunal, claiming she was not initially shown the complaints, making the disicplinary process flawed.

A spokesperson for the Trust said: "We have a duty to our patients that when they are at their most vulnerable they are not exposed to unsolicited beliefs and/ or views, religious or otherwise. We feel we have acted appropriately in this case."
